No Shortcuts Manifesto

The short version

No Shortcuts in 30 Seconds

Code faster, or use AI-created time to make the whole product better?

Ask your management if they want code 3x faster, or code 2x faster but 2x better.

After they say "3x" and you slap them with a banana peel, realize that 2x better is the way to go.

Code that is written better gets written faster and even faster long term.

Use the speed of AI code gen (finally, less typing) to give you time back to reinvest in engineering to produce your product at least 2x as good 2x as fast.
